I forgot to share this photo of a gorgeous yellow mushroom we saw the other day in the woods. Last night we spotted quite a few Indian Pipes over by Cunningham Pond. We went right at dusk so didn't get to stay very long as they close the gates there at 8 p.m. It has been so hot here, I finally got out my bathing suit today and plan on swimming some this week.
I have been reading and napping on the couch as it is been too hot for much movement. A friend did let me come over this morning and pick her raspberries, she said she is tired of picking them. Her dog, Esme, a cute black Scottie dog loves to eat berries! I offered one to Oliver when I got home but he wouldn't take it. We'll walk our dogs together sometime when this heat wave is over. Esme has a hard time making friends with other dogs but seemed to like Oliver when they met.
You know I don't like crossword puzzles much but gave myself a fun challenge yesterday. I cut out words from an old 1967 hair dye ad and made two poems from the words. I tried for a third but lost patience. So funny what a terrific response I got to those from people. Reading the words for that ad over and over was amusing - basically saying if you weren't born a blonde, you should become one, apparently it would improve every aspect of your life. How silly!
